In LetsGoDigital’s coverage on the AIIM on Demand conference, correspondent Ralf Jurrien reports on a development that should have great interest amongst QuarkXPress 7 users that produce layout and content for direct marketers:
Kodak will launch the Kodak Darwin VI Authoring Tool for QuarkXpress 7 Software. Widely used by designers, advertising agencies and marketing professionals for direct marketing through personalization, the Darwin VI authoring tool converts QuarkXpress 7 documents into variable information documents in which all elements-text, graphics, colors, layout, charts, background and even entire pages-can be dynamic. Kodak will show as a technology demonstration at AIIM on Demand a Windows version of Darwin VI authoring tool for Adobe inDesign CS3 Software. The Windows edition is used to drive the variable data print capabilities of the Kodak Web-to-print solutions. Kodak products are backed by Kodak Service and Support. Named Best Support Organization at the 2006 International Business Awards, Kodak Service and Support includes more than 3,000 professionals in 120 countries. These professionals are fully qualified to help customers control costs, maximize productivity, and minimize business risk.
